Book flights

App in the Air packs contextual shortcuts and visual clarity into travel admin. Our UX Bites show how it surfaces airline helplines from the app icon and makes seat choice tangible.

Key takeaways from 2 UX Bites

  • Long-pressing the app icon surfaces the helpline for your upcoming flight's airline

  • A visual cabin map at check-in makes seat choice spatial, not a list of seat codes

  • Upcoming trip data feeds the icon shortcut, so help appears before users go looking
